Thanks JBurks. One day, I just wish my job didn't keep me so busy.

that is a crazy amount of HP for a focus lol. Your car is badass! i'd love to see you do a run down the drag strip.

My compression is 9.2:1. I haven't had the car on load and stalled yet.

There's nothing wrong with Fernando's tuning lol. Jeremy helped replace my CHRA after the old became heat-soaked from bad coolant lines. He went ahead and hooked up my eBoost2 at the same time. Before it was on a manual eBoost-T set at 30psi. With the eBoost2 connected I'd like to get another tune to ensure proper operation.

Tom has tuned my car with my old ProCharger and his Stage II turbo kit. Both of which I had no issues other than my own mistakes.

I don't think Fernando saw much gains because I am using an ATX. I should have easily made 650 on race fuel. AND we didn't even adjust cam gears yet.

What compression are you running???
I should be 9.0.1 but, the closest my engine builder could get was 9.0.2 with .40 head gasket.

When you put load on the auto and stall it, what's the RPM before it wants to brake traction????

Tial SS .82

3" thick intercooler. 3" In, 3.5" out.

Can you send me an XR6 engine and the ZF 6-speed automatic transmission with Sequential Sports Shift

Can you send me an F truck with car trailer and mustang

I spoke to Fernando about this stroker kit and he said he didn't see much gain over the 2.0L.
I found that really odd because any other engine would of made huge gains.
If you don't like Fernando tune, so why didn't you get O'lordly white pony Horsepower story to tune your Focus since "YOU" have the same engine and gearbox as what he claims to have done????

This is the part I don't understand, WEll, it does make sense...LOL
The machine shop goes 9.37 @ 161 with 850Whp
Daniel Micallef goes 9.830 @ 149 with Whp 687.00 tq 782.00
Shouldn't the O'lordly white pony be somewhere in the middle with the wild claims, lets not forget turbo and auto go hand in hand with each other but he goes 11.880 @ 123.000 back in December 22nd, 2004

There is none. The dyno session you quoted, is only an initial tune to setup the ATX's shifting pressure.

The dyno seesion you quoted, it is on 93.

Real deal of what?

My Focus is at the proformance shop getting built and with the engine and gearbox getting put in late next week, I want to compare my auto to someone who got the most powerful auto to date and that "YOU"

My tuner will start with 20psi and get the car setup before upping the psi but, at least we know 30 psi in the auto will hold up.

Where's the other video of the person with the camera who zoom into the dyno TV screen???

Was this tune done on 93octane or C16??? would love to see the dyno sheet???

I'm about to go through all of this within the next few weeks and I'm really interested to know the real deal brother???

All 4 blocks are the same 2.0L, stock block & SVT block are the same. 95 to 98 Contour cgi block( which you have) and The real deal Cosworth 2000-04 WRC block.

Where's the other video of the person with the camera who zoom into the dyno TV screen???

With the turbo you got and the auto, you lost 31.5% from the flywheel to the wheels

Does anyone else beleive in the the O'lordly white pony Horsepower story because I don't.

One of the sponsors on this site used to offer a stroker kit (tom at Focus-power) for the zetec block, I don't think he does anymore though. This is HEAVILY custom
